If not I ask you to look at a map of the know universe. Earth is a tiny pin dot out of millions of other pin dot. And ask yourself how could there only be life on one out of millions of planets!

Right now, Farlack of the Geltrans on Planet Flibbering, orbiting the Dog star of Mecaea is asking the same thing of his peers on their version of the internet.
But seriously... all those stars... billions of them are all suns. If only half of them have a few planets revolving around them, one of them has to have life on it.

The odds are greatly stacked towards there being life on other planets. There are billions of stars, in each galaxy and billions of galaxies, for there to be only one planet with life, well what a waste of space. The real question is if there is intelligent life on any planet, including earth. I don't know about that one.

Those bible thumpers would like everyone to believe that we humans on earth are the chosen creatures made in god's image and there is not life anywhere but here!! Yeah right. I would like to say that if we are the only ones in the universe then it is more likely that we are freaks of nature and there is no god. I prefer to think that there are millions of other civilizations out there. Just because we can't and have not contacted anyone or have any proof doesn't mean that they aren't there.

Read the book, A Short History of Just About Everything, by Bill Bryson. In part, it explains how life was formed on Earth. It doesn't matter how big things are, it's all about how it happens.

Well there are a million stars out there which means a million suns. Also the galaxy go's on forever so there's got to be something. no one has all over the world...it' not possible.

Yes, I do believe that there is a possibility that there could be life on other planets. However, very few planets are conditioned to support life.

I actually think it is a comfort to believe that there are other populated planets in the universe. I sure hope that there are other beings out there sharing the vast region of space with us.

Define life? and yes it's an awefully big universe to deny that their could be. Problem is that we will never know.
Well that is unless they get moving on the hyper drive right now.

I think there could well be other life, I just don't know how possible "intelligent" life is.
but it seems like you already had your answer before you asked it :)
